Retroactive Smoke Detection for One & Two Family Homes Only required for projects undergoing permit work exceeding a project

valuation of $1,000 and involving electrical work. Note: that the prescriptive requirements of the International Residential Building Code require retroactive compliance for smoke detectors for all one and two family homes undergoing permitted electrical work (see code passage below). This compliance would mandate hardwired interconnected smoke detectors on:

1.) all stories of the home, 2.) within 15 feet of all bedrooms and, 3.) within all bedrooms.

2015 INTERNATIONAL RESIDENTIAL CODE IRC- R314.2.2 Alterations, repairs and additions. When alterations, repairs or additions requiring a permit occur, or when one or more sleeping rooms are added or created in existing dwellings, the individual dwelling unit shall be equipped with smoke alarms located as required for new dwellings.

Exceptions: Work involving exterior surfaces of dwellings, such as the replacement of roofing or siding, or the

addition or replacement of windows or doors, or the additions of a porch or deck, are exempt from

the requirements of this section.

Installation, alteration or repairs of plumbing or mechanical systems are exempt from the

requirements of this section.

IRC- R314.6 Power Source. Smoke alarms shall receive their primary power from the building wiring when such wiring is served from a commercial source, and when primary power is interrupted, shall receive power from a battery. Wiring shall be permanent and without a disconnection switch other than those required for over current protection. Smoke alarms shall be interconnected.

In light of newer UL listed radio frequency interconnection technology, Aurora has determined that we will accept a combination of a hardwired and battery only radio frequency interconnected smoke detectors as a design alternative to the prescriptive code requirement.

This compliance has proven to cost in the neighborhood of $300 for the average home reducing the code prescriptive costs by about 70%. Should this additional cost prove to be a burden for your owner occupied project please asks for a permit extension to extend project completion / installation of the battery only units to 1 year from the completion of all other work.

Please see the next page to determine the locations requiring the additional smoke detector coverage should you elect to use the radio frequency interconnection design alternative. The following page shall be filled in and submitted with your permit application. Please indicate the type of detectors in the locations indicated and the construction year category (A,B,C,D). Should you home be built after 2001 please indicate that the home was built after 2001 by checking the A category and include the form so we do not trouble you by asking the question during our plan review process again.
